Group Visits

Special rates are available for Exclusive Use bookings.

With beds, sofas, tables and chairs for 18 guests, Prosen Hostel is the perfect destination for a short break or holiday with friends, relatives or fellow walkers, climbers, mountain bikers, nature lovers or other outdoor enthusiasts.

Groups with more than 18 members can also be accommodated as, by prior arrangement, tents can be pitched on the hostel’s extensive lawn. In addition, there are several holiday lets in Glen Prosen, varying from fairy-tale romantic hidewaways to Balnaboth, the laird of the glen’s 16th century mansion house.

If you’re looking for a memorable location for a very special celebration, perhaps a Big Birthday, christening, naming ceremony or wedding, Glen Prosen can provide an unforgettable backdrop to a special day. You and your guests can stay in the hostel and the celebrations can either be held outside or at the village hall close by, which can be booked along with the hostel.

In addition, the Old Kirk will soon be re-opening as a community centre, when it will be ideal for weddings, christenings and other special occasions.

Activities

Walking is a very popular activity in Glen Prosen. There are lovely low-level walks and testing climbs throughout the glen, which also offers access to several of the other Angus Glens, various Munros, the Cairngorms Plateau and the Cateran Trail.

This is also a very good area for mountain biking, cycling, climbing, kayaking and many other outdoor activities. And in winter, we’re only a couple of glens away from Glenshee Ski Centre.

If you’re looking for a more relaxing break, Glamis Castle is nearby. In Kirriemuir, Barrie’s Birthplace offers a fascinating look at the childhood of the creator of Peter Pan, while his gift to the town, a Victorian Camera Obscura, provides sweeping views of the surrounding hills and mountains.
